The Royal Family page featured numerous photos of Queen Elizabeth and The Duchess of Cambridge at royal engagements throughout the years. They penned a sweet birthday message to Kate, “Wishing The Duchess of Cambridge a very Happy Birthday!”

It is understood that Kate kick-started her birthday celebrations last weekend at her family’s home in Norfolk.

Kate’s friends and family gathered at their home Anmer Hall on Sunday. The Duchess was joined by her parents, Thomas Van Straubenzee and his fiancée Lucy Lanigan-O'Keeffe, James Meade and his wife Laura.

Kate is expected to mark today with a low-key celebration at her and Prince William’s home in Kensington Palace.

The parents have no engagements in the royal diary today so they’ll be able to enjoy some quality family time with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are set to return to the UK in the coming days and Archie already has a special playdate lined up.

According to US Weekly, Kate is hoping her children can spend more time with their little cousin Archie in 2020. A source told the publication that the mum-of-three is hoping their bond will strengthen over the next year.

The source said that Kate is “hoping that in the new year, the cousins will spend more time together.”

Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis reportedly adore their cousin and we’re not one bit surprised. He is as cute as can be.

The family didn’t get to spend Christmas or New Year together so there’s no doubt Harry and Meghan will be eager to see their family when they return to London.

Prince William can be seen grinning alongside Kate in the family snap. The dad is sitting on an old fashioned motorcycle with Prince Louis. Princess Charlotte is standing on the side car with her big brother Prince George behind her.

Our hearts can’t quite cope with Prince Louis in his little dungarees. He has grown up so much in the past year, as have his siblings.

Princess Charlotte and Prince George are set to make their debut at Sandringham this Christmas. The brother and sister are expected to join their parents and extended family at the Christmas Day mass.

Every year, the Royal Family walk to the service at St Mary Magdalene Church.

According to The Sun, the youngsters are old enough to join The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge for the special tradition.

A source said, “It will be so sweet. George and Charlotte will make their Christmas debut, as long as they're both on good form on the day. It's the picture all royal fans want to see. The royals walking to church on Christmas Day is a rite of passage and so William and Kate didn't want to expose their children too early, but they feel they’re old enough now."

The mum-of-three wore a plaid dress with a white collar and puff sleeves to the Queen’s Christmas lunch. It is the perfect look for a Christmas celebration.

She also wore a pair of Cavalfiore pearls by British jewellery designer Cassandra Goad.

The family were in high spirits as they joined Queen Elizabeth, Prince Philip, The Duke of York, Prince Charles, The Earl and Countess of Wessex, Princess Beatrice, and Zara and Mike Tindall for the festive lunch.

This Christmas, Prince George and Princess Charlotte will join their parents on the walk to St Mary Magdalene Church on Christmas Day.

Speaking about his first visit to the Passage, the dad-of-three said, “It had a profound impact on me and my mother knew what she was doing with it. She realised that it was very important when you grow up, especially in the life we grew up in, that you realise that life happens beyond palace walls, and that you see real people struggling with real issues.”

Prince William went on to tell Mary Berry that he is trying to teach his children the same vital life lessons.

He shared, “I know it sounds a little bit contrite, but on the school run already whenever we see anyone who’s sleeping rough on the streets I talk about it and I point it out and I explain why and they’re all very interested.”

There’s no doubt A Berry Royal Christmas will be an emotional and eye-opening watch.

A Berry Royal Christmas airs on BBC One at 8.30pm on Monday, December 16.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were missing from last night’s event as they are currently taking a break from royal engagements. The couple have stepped back from their duties for six weeks so they can celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas with Meghan’s mum in America.

The 36-year-old said she was honoured to attend the ParaSnowBall. She posed for photographs with attendees and looked as happy as ever.

The ParaSnowBall is an event for people with disabilities who engage in winter sports. Pippa has been attending the ball for years and is deeply passionate about supporting the event.

Speaking about the inspirational event, she said, “I am honoured to be supporting Disability SnowSport UK and as a keen skier myself, I feel very passionately about enabling those with a disability to experience the joy of skiing alongside non-disabled people. The ParaSnowBall sponsored by Delancey was an inspirational celebration of Paralympians," HarpersBazaar reports.

The Middleton sisters have certainly upped their style game this year.

This morning’s event celebrated the work of Shout’s many volunteers. The organisation, which was launched by the Cambridges and The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, aims to provide 24/7 support to people in the UK.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have a host of royal engagements lined up for the coming weeks. The parents appear to be busier than ever as we inch closer to the Christmas holidays.

Kate and William will attend the Tusk Awards on Thursday, November 21. For almost 30 years Tusk has pioneered successful conservation action in Africa by protecting wildlife, empowering communities and working in the fight to end wildlife crime.

The parents recently attended the Remembrance Day Service, alongside Queen Elizabeth, Prince Charles and The Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
